Potluck in the Park Recycling and Clean Up Crew (age 16+) *Hands On*

Potluck in the Park has been serving a free hot meal to anyone in need since 1991. Every Sunday, rain or shine, 52 weeks a year, we provide a hot meal in downtown Portland in various locations. 400-800 Portlanders do not go hungry on Sunday because of Potluck in the Park. We are a volunteer-driven, nonprofit organization and we accomplish our mission of providing nutritious food and an atmosphere of community to anyone in need, because of volunteers like you!

Potluck in the Park Details:

STARTING SUNDAY 04/28/19, Potluck in the Park will be held back at the NORTH PARK BLOCKS. Meal times and shift times remain the same. We may not have protection from the sun/rain, so dress accordingly for the weather.

Volunteers should check in no earlier than 3:00pm and no later than 3:15pm.

Project Requirements:

We ask that volunteers are 16 years of age or older to attend this project.

If you plan to bring your children or other guests to the event, you MUST reserve slots for them. The best way to do this is to create a Volunteer Team. You can then sign up your team for this project.

All volunteers under 18 are required to bring a waiver signed by their parent or legal guardian, or - if attending with an adult - have them fill one out at the event. Please download, complete, and bring this waiver with you on the day of the project: Youth Volunteer Release Form. Remember to give this to the person running check-in!
